[DeTomaso] DMV California - Temporary Moving Permit questions!

In most states there is a flat fee based on the estimated number of
miles you will drive your electric car.  For example, in North
Carolina I would expect to drive 7,000 miles on a 20 mile range
electric car that I expected to drive every day.  I would expect to
pay about $200.00 for the privilege (48 cents a gallon at 20 mpg
gasoline).

Oregon has introduced legislation for a flat tax of $100.00 road tax
for all electric vehicles.

Biodiesel users and natural gas as well as electrics are fined heavily
if it is discovered that they have not paid their road tax (thousands
of dollars).

This is information for the hobbyist, but I believe hybrids are
exempt.  Not sure about more interesting new cars such as the Leaf
that can get an effective 80 mile range or the Tesla that can go over
200 miles at a crack.  I suspect it still depends on your estimate,
verified by odometer readings.
